Snapshots of Week One

I would like to qualify this blog post by stating that, while I love to take pictures (especially of nature), my skills and camera are somewhat less than up to par with many of your serious photography aims and cameras to match. However, I do believe I succeeded in capturing some of what this lovely country looks like. So, here it is:

The view from the house.

The hostel we stayed at in Manuel Antonio National Park

A really awesome looking crab that Dominique found on a rock.

My roomies! (Johanna-Middle, Dominique-Right)

A view of the ocean from a hike in the National Forrest.

My room--specifically my bed (if you couldn't tell :])

My room, Part II--the desk(ish) area

My host family--including the animals

My host family, again, but with Allison on the right.
